By Kickback from TFW2005:High Moon Studios, the creators behind the popular and successful Transformers Fall of Cybertron game stated in a Q&A Thursday that they are not planning any future downloadable content for Fall of Cybertron.

The statement is as quoted below:

Can you add more colors and characters?

Unfortunatly not. Each color, new character, or really anything that gets added puts demands on what the game can support technically. At this point with the largest roster of Tranformer characters ever and dozens of colors we have reached the limit. Sorry Sludge fans!

Will you be adding any DLC maps?

A number of our fans have expressed an interst in buying DLC maps, however we feel this will have a negative impact a player's ability to quickly find a full match. This is a major learning we made from War For Cybertron. The addition of paid DLC maps splits the player community between those with the maps and those without.

This is obviously a huge disappointment for those who have been playing the game on a regular basis and enjoying it, but have started reaching the end-game limits. Many fans have questioned if games such as the Halo franchise can release map packs for over a year after the game is released, and Left 4 Dead 2 can continue to release new campaigns and multiplayer maps years after the game was released, why can't High Moon Studios do the same with Transformers Fall of Cybertron?

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:Bleedingcoolnews has posted the IDW Solicitations for February 2013, including a huge dose of Transformers comic awesomeness! There's five Transformers books hitting shelves next February and they are:

More than Meets the Eye #14

Robots in Disguise #14

Regeneration 1 # 88

Transformers Prime Rage of the Dinobots #4 of 4

Transformers Spotlight Megatron (written and drawn by Nick Roche!)

Yes, Transformers spotlights continue their revival in February with the focus falling on the biggest bad of them all - Megatron! But that's not all - it's shaping up to be a true "villain month" with many bad guys driving the plots of their respective issues. We won't say too much more here on the frontpage so check out the full solicits and covers at Bleeding Cool by clicking here - but beware, major spoilers ahead!

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:Entertainment site Vulture reports that their inside sources close to the Transformers 4 production team are informing them that Transformers 4 may film in China, and may even be co-produced between Michael Bay's production company and a Chinese partner company. The basis of the report is an increasing desire for US made films to make it in the notoriously tough Chinese box office. The article also includes a statement from Paramount, stating that "the script is still being written" and "it is not a Chinese co-production", so make of it all what you will.

It's not impossible that China may be involved in Transformers 4 in some way - after all, we have reports that London may have some location filming and that Bangkok is being considered. For now, take this as a rumor - albeit one that would make good financial sense should it play out.

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:The official Transformers GT site along with many online retailers including our own TFSource have updated today with the first color prototype images of the Transformers GT series GT Prime and GT Saber. Only the vehicle modes are shown so far, but both are looking very sharp with their authentic race deco details. Optimus Prime looks particularly awesome in the red and black. Read on and check them out.

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:High Moon Studios Transformers Fall of Cybertron wowed us this summer with an awesome tour de force of what it was like to be a Transformer on the last days of Cybertron, be it swinging around with Jazz on his grappling hook, munching metal with Grimlock or bringing huge amounts of pain to the Autobots as Bruticus (not to mention the sheer amounts of awesome that are the final mission).

Fall of Cybertron's status as one of the best if not the best Transformers game ever has been recognized with a nomination for the Spike TV videogame awards 2012 in the category of "Best Adaptation". It's got competition of course, from Lego Batman 2: DC Superheroes, The Walking Dead and Epic Mickey 2.

And that's where you come in, fans! Head on over to Spike TV and cast your votes for the game you want to see recognized as the best videogame adaptation of 2012!

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:The Takara-Tomy Youtube channel has updated with a short little video showing off the Transformers Prime RC toys, to advertise them for their Japanese release. It's a fairly cute video with some cool background music, showing off the features of the toys in a rather fun fashion. Check it out below:

If you got in on this when it initially went up on Amazon many moons ago, start watching out for your postie carrying those boxes with the smiles on!

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:A bit more info on those Nike Flyposite Megatron edition sneakers for you now. By way of Sneakerfiles, we have a bit of info on when these are coming out and also the cost. Unfortunately they aren't cheap, and they are Black Friday release items. They're due out next Friday, 23 November, and they are set to retail for $190. The site also notes they are limited quantities, so these are out-and-out Black Friday exclusives for those brave enough to face the crowds.

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:Artist Livio Ramondelli (previous credits including Chaos and Autocracy) has shared the variant cover art he did for the upcoming Transformers Spotlight Orion Pax. Spotlihgt Orion Pax takes us back in time to before there was an Optimus Prime, to the days of "super-cop" Orion Pax. Check out this piece of artwork of the future Optimus Prime standing before the Autobot sigil.

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:The official Transformers Facebook page has updated with artwork for Thundercracker's two cards from the upcoming Transformers Legends cell phone game. Like many other characters in the game, Thundercracker gets two cards in-game - one depicting his robot mode and one depicting his alternate mode. Check it out for the developer's take on Generation 1 Thundercracker - it's very much a Classics Seeker design with a bit of the E.J. Su designs going on in the legs!

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:By way of Hasui Yuki's Twitter account, we've got a look at the newly released third and so far final assortment of Transformers United EX releases. The final assortment features Assaultmaster (Crankcase redeco, as an Autobot), Buildmaster (Steamhammer redeco in full Constructicon lime green and purple) and a VS pack of Marinemaster VS Tankmaster (redecos of Undertow and Heavy Tread respectively, with each toy being redecoed as a member of the opposite faction).

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:Our fellow fans over at The Allspark have translated the seventh chapter of the Transformers United story. This chapter picks up on what happened to the Autobot Choppermaster after his battle with Rollermaster and Combatmaster. The good news is, he was rescued by Airmaster. The bad part, it was all a part of a Decepticon plan to track the location of the Master Class' base, and steal another set of Power Core Combiner drones - and it falls to the Decepticon Dozermaster to execute the plan!

This chapter introduces the two toys from the two-pack that accompanied it into the plot - Airmaster and Dozermaster. As usual hints are dropped at the identity of the two new characters - Airmaster is revealed to be a third member of the Micromaster Air Patrol, Sky High, while Dozermaster's bio drops some heavy hints that he's another Generation 2 character - the Autoroller, Roadblock.

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:Once again courtesy of Robot Kingdom's Facebook page we have a look at the Fall of Cybertron Deluxe Wave 3 toys out of package. These loose shots show off the robot and alternate modes of each of the five toys along with their weapons. Customization of the weapons seems to be the order of the day, with each of the large weapons being able to break down into smaller weapons, and some of these weapons - like Starscream's Scrapmaker - have enough pegs and ports on them to be combined with other weapons as well.

Check out the in-hand images of the five new Deluxe toys in this assortment - Ultra Magnus, Starscream, Kickback, Sideswipe and Air Raid - to see which ones you'll be hunting down when these hit retail in the coming months.

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:Our sponsors Robot Kingdom have put up a huge amount of new in-package images on their Facebook page, showcasing a variety of new releases in package including Transformers Generations Fall of Cybertron Deluxe Wave 3, Transformers United EX Wave 3 and Transformers Prime Gatling Bumblebee.

All these are newly released and shipping out from Robot Kingdom next week - check out these pictures to whet your appetite for the new toy goodness to come.

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:Transformers 4 is shaping up to be quite the globe-hopping adventure. We've previously heard of the possibility of some on-location filming in the UK in London, we are now also hearing reports via Hollywood Reporter and others that Ilt Jones, the location manager for the first three live-action Transformers movies, has scouted Bangkok as a potential shooting location for Transformers 4! Check out the full write-up on Hollywood Reporter.

IDW Limited is a new sub-series of comics by IDW, with three levels of increasingly limited edition high-end releases and including a selection of special features including special art prints. These are going to print in silver ink to give off a nice shine.

By Secretcode from TFW2005:TakaraTomy has updated their website listings for three future Arms Micron releases: AM-27 Ultra Magnus (a redeco of the recently release Voyager Ultra Magnus with a new Arms Micron hammer), AM-28 Leo Prime (a redeco of Thundertron in colors resembling those of Lio Convoy from Beast Wars II, with a Micron companion resembling Moon, from the same show.) and AM-29 Shockwave (Who is, oddly enough, the Takara release of Generations/Fall of Cybertron Shockwave, with a new Micron in place of his pre-existing cannon). All three are due for release in December of this year.
